From the Vault: Barbara’s home, Black Sheep Antiques

Another jaunt with my friend, photographer Virginia Jones. We drove way out to visit this centuries old family home of Barbara from Black Sheep. What a dream.

Over the course of the pandemic, I traveled the country visiting grand homes, magical gardens and sitting with fabulous people while painting their portraits. I painted fruits and flowers and everything from the spectacular to the mundane. It’s all rather special and entirely significant in a world that is entirely out of our control. 

I’ve held onto these paintings on paper, keeping them in archive boxes until this very moment. Each one, entirely unique, capturing an unprecedented moment in time, depicted through the experience of an artist.
